Scouts collect over 1,000 items for food pantry
Over 1,000 food items were collected by Scouts from Bluffton BSA Troop 256 on Sunday Oct. 24. Sorting the donated canned food items, from left to right, are Clay Burkholder, Jack Burrell, Tyler King, Jared Metzger, Carrick Lancaster and Misha Groman.
Thanks to the residents of Bluffton who donated food items to the Bluffton Food Pantry at a time when "the cupboards were bare," a time of critical need as Thanksgiving and Christmas approaches.
These are times of need for a number of families. If anyone was missed during the food drive, or would like to make a donation of food items, call either Assistant Scoutmasters Mike Metzger at 419/235-5654 or Gary Wetherill at 419/819-8268.
